Bomberman stood in his bedroom. He often did this and pretended to be fictional characters from movies he liked. This time, he had his fedora and leather jacket on and called himself Indiana Bomber. Slightly startling him when he did so, Luigi opened the door and called out to his imagination filled friend.
"Hey, tiger. You ready to go to," Luigi gazed at the costume that Bomberman had put on. He remembered every other time he wore this costume and frowned. "Take that crap off!" Demanded Luigi.
Bomberman stood up for his look, "But Luigi, you know that when I wear this we end up going on an adventure."
Kirby was strolling on down the hallway to greet his buddies, "Hey Luigi, what taking so," he stopped to view Bomberman's attire, and remembered every other time he wore this costume and frowned. "Oh, not again."
"What?" Bomberman pleaded, "We're goin to the movies. There's always adventure there.
The three loaded up into Kirby's car and they made the drive to the theaters. Bomberman, being the only one who was happy enough to talk, continued to attempt reasurring his friends, "What? This is going to be fun!"
The movie showing this night was one that Bomberman had always wanted to see. A story of a man trying to find a woman. "I've always wanted to see this." Bomberman said.
The three walked up to the ticket counter. The clerk, in a horrible mood, thought to himself (Oh great, more freaks. I gotta stop workin the night shift).
Kirby, somehow able to read the man's thoughts, put his fists down on the counter with anger. "What did you just think about us?"
It only took a couple of seconds. The clerk was stripped naked, bound, and gagged. Left there to muddle in his own thoughts. (Yup, gotta get a shift change.)
The movies were going well until problems arose. Bomberman's hat was in the way of the movie patron seated directly behind him. The angry individual spoke to his friend sitting next to him. "Can you believe that guy? Wearing a hat to the movies. Fucken asshole!" Out of anger, the man stood up and slapped the hat off Bomberman's head.
When Bomberman turned around to see who it was, he was in shock. "Oh shit!" he exclaimed.
Detective Ralph Ralphison, equally as shocked, screamed "Hey! It's them!"
His partner, George Gregory, pulled out his gun and badge. "PSPD, Freeze!"
Kirby whipped out the emergancy knife our of his no existant pocket and held it limply and poised to throw. "You guys run! I'll hold them off!" They did so and Kirby threw the knife directly into Gregory's arm, successfully knocking the gun out of his hand.
Gregory yelped in pain. Ralphinson leapt over his partner and continued to persue. Gregory knew as well as he did that catching the L-TEAM was more important than the safety of his partner.
The team busted out of the back exit of the theater and bolted down the ally. Luigi had no reason to run. He had never taken part in the crimes or destruction commited by his two friends. He ran with them because they would most likely need help escaping. As the three ran down the ally, Bomberman called back, "See what I mean? Adventure!"
Kirby called back in anger, "This isn't adventure, you dumb bastard!"
Next was Luigi's turn to be pissed, "You just had to wear that fucking hat and jacket didn't you?!"
Ignoring the comments, Bomberman found a door that was unlocked. "Quick, in here!"
Once inside, the team caught their breath. Bomberman let out a sigh of relief. "We're safe." He looked around to find Kirby entranced. He was staring at a sword mounted on the wall. Luigi made his way over to the sign.
Luigi read the sign outloud. "He... or she... who picks up this sword must find the one person to which this weapon cannot kill. Upon doing so, you will be given 1,000,000 dollars."
Kirby broke out into a sweat. "One... Million... DOLLARS!!"
Bomberman said disgustedly, "Ew, stop sweating."
Luigi removed the sword from the wall and began to swing it in the air. "I don't know about this. How will we find this person."
Kirby raised his hand in unnecissary politeness. "I've got an idea."
The park was peaceful and serene and the people occupying it were happily going about their days. Mrs. Humphry was feeding the pidgeons. The Nelsons were walking their dog, Scruffy. Mr. Bardon read the paper under an oak tree. All was right with the universe at the park.
The L-TEAM pulled into a parking space and got out. "Lets get to it." Kirby chanted. He pulled the sword from the trunk and held it firmly in his hand. "You guys decide if they're dead or not." Kirby charged into the park, sword held in attack position. He managed to thrust it into a woman who was eating a doughnut. The woman dropped down to the ground in a bloody mess.
"Luigi and Bomberman stood by the car. "Nope, that one isn't it."
Kirby continued to attack people in the park until they had all scattered and dissapeared. He walked back over to his friends who were still standing by the car. Luigi spoke his thoughts. "We need to find a faster way to do this."
Kirby thought for a second, "I've got an idea."
The L-TEAM meat market opened its doors to a non-existant crowd of people. The sign in the window read HELP WANTED and below it said GREAT PAY.
A man in a ruffled business suit and poorly combed hair walked in. "I'm here about the job." he said. Bomberman was sitting behind the front counter smoking a cigarette.
"Follow the guy with the green hat." He instructed.
Luigi was standing by the door that led into the back office. The man walked up to him and he pointed to the door. "Right this way." said Luigi in a very business like tone.
The man walked into the room and gave a quick look around to find that it was empty. "Hello?" he called.
Suddenly, from out of what some might refer to as nowhere, Kirby flew strait toward the potential employee with the sword sticking strait out. It stabbed him and he fell to the ground with a thud. Kirby stood over the body. "Damnit, another dud. So what are we going to do with all the bodies?"
Bomberman walked into the office. "They are starting to pile up."
Luigi walked into the office. "Don't worry. I've taken care of everything." He led the two into another room in the back office. It contained a machine that was unloading the bodies into a meat grinder and creating delicious steaks and hamburgers. "The profits made by this stuff should put us past three million by next week. The chum industry is our number one buyer, next to Mc Donalds"
Kirby suddenly looked worried. "We're still going to find who the sword can't kill, right?"
Luigi patted his head. "Of course, my little one."
Kirby leaped up into Luigi's arms and cuddled, "I love you Luigi."
Luigi broke the affection. "We'll need a better way to find him... her."
Bomberman ended his silence. "Do you guys have the feeling that what we're doing is wrong? Maybe we should stop this."
Kirby was outraged, "There's a million dollars on the table. We'll do whatever it takes. Besides, it's not like you to have morals. Quit stepping out of character for the humanisation of this work."
Just then, Kirby's arch rival, Metaknight, entered the meat shop and walked up to the conversing group. "I'm here for the job."
Bomberman jumped infront of his team and stuck his arm out in a defensive manouver. "Metaknight!"
"I've read this comic up to this exact point and I believe I'm the one the sword cannot kill." he said. "Go ahead, give it a try. If I don't die, you guys give me half of the million."
Kirby picked up the sword and stabbed through the enemy. "Sure, I'll take that deal."
Metaknight pulled the sword from his body, but Kirby pushed it back in. Metaknight laughed an evil laugh. "I lived!"
Before the L-TEAM could respond to the stabbing, a beam of light broke through the cieling and god decended from the heavens. God landed and looked at the villian with the sword through himself. "thou hath done it! Thou hath found the one the sword cannot slay."
Metaknight jumped back. "Oh crap, God found me."
God smiled. "I've been looking all over for this guy. People say I can see everything... but they don't know shit. Like just last week I lost my car keys and..."
At that moment, metaknight stabbed God in the side. "Find me now, God!"
Kirby grew fire in his eyes, literally. "We had a poker game next friday!" he exclaimed. Bomberman handed his pink companion a bomb.
"Here ya go buddy. Do what needs to be done."
"Thanks, pal"
Kirby hurled the bomb toward his long time enemy. It exploded and blew him out of the meat market. God waved his hand and the wound healed itself. "God I love my magic. Ha ha ha. I always forget I have it. Like this one time..."
Kirby interupted his long time poker buddy. "You know, there's nothing I love more than to listen to old man ramblings, but my wallet is hungry."
"Oh, right. Here's your million dollars, boys." He said, throwing a suitcase on the ground.
The next morning, the meat market was closed. Luigi looked bummed. "It seems like a waste to close our first successful business."
Bomberman shook his head in agreement. "We ran out of free meat. Besides, the police would have eventually caught up with us."
Luigi responded, "Still, I wish we ahd a good money making sceme going."
Kirby raised his hand. "I've got an idea."
And so, the L-TEAM made a quick million and Kirby has a new idea to rais easy money. Will it work? Time (and another comic) will tell. Until next time.
